- 3D Text: transform: rotateX(5deg) rotateY(-5deg) on hover
- Shadows: Harsh drop-shadow: 8px 8px 0px #ff0000
- Layout: Broken grid, overlapping sections
- Scroll: Parallax with CSS only (perspective: 1000px)
- Mobile: Keep glitch but reduce intensity (performance)

**Sections:** Hero (glitch name), Projects (3D cards), Skills (scrolling ticker), Contact (funky form)

**No JavaScript Framework!** Pure CSS 3D transforms.

**Keyframes:** Define @keyframes glitch for random RGB split

**Output:** Single index.html file with embedded CSS

**Deploy:** Drag &amp; drop to Netlify Drop

PART 4: IMPLEMENTATION BLUEPRINTS

Blueprint 1: Interactive Client Dashboard (7 Days)

Week 1: Planning & Architecture

Day 1-2: Client Discovery

I need to extract technical requirements from a client conversation.

**Client's description:** "[PASTE_CLIENT_ANSWERS]"

**My role:** Translate this into a technical specification they can approve.

**Generate:**
1. Clarifying questions (max 5) to ask client
2. Assumptions I'm making
3. Technical requirement list (simple language)
4. Feature prioritization (Must Have/Should Have/Could Have)
5. Estimated complexity (1-10)
6. Recommended tech stack (justify in client terms)
7. Ballpark estimate range ($)

Day 3: Tech Stack Decision

- sales_data (daily aggregates)
- user_access (who can see what)

**Include:**
1. SQL CREATE TABLE statements
2. RLS policies per table
3. Foreign key relationships
4. Indexes for performance
5. Sample INSERT queries
6. Row-level security for multi-tenant access

Week 2: AI-Assisted Development

Day 4-5: Core Development

Build a Make.com scenario:
Trigger: Shopify "New Order" webhook
Action 1: Parse order data (customer, items, total)
Action 2: Create record in Airtable "Orders" table

Action 4: Send confirmation email to customer

**Provide:**
1. Scenario blueprint (visual description)
2. Field mapping (Shopify → Airtable)

Day 6-7: Testing & Refinement

My Make.com scenario failed when Airtable API rate limit hit.
Current: Fails silently

**Implement:**
1. Retry with exponential backoff (3 attempts)
2. Wait 60 seconds between retries
3. If all fail → Send me email alert
4. Log error to Airtable "Error Log" table
5. Resume scenario from failed module

**Provide updated scenario configuration and error log table schema.**

Blueprint 2: Business Automation System (10 Days)

Day 1-2: Discovery & Architecture

Create a client interview script for a business automation project.

**Client:** Small e-commerce store owner
**Current tools:** Shopify, Gmail, Google Sheets, manual shipping

**I need questions that:**
1. Reveal time-wasting tasks (quantify hours/week)
2. Identify pain points (errors, delays, costs)
3. Uncover hidden steps ("Oh, I also do...")
4. Determine budget comfort zone
5. Assess technical literacy

**Provide 15 specific questions in logical sequence, with follow-up probes for each.**

Day 3-5: Workflow Building

Build an n8n workflow that:
Trigger: Airtable "Leads" table new record
Action 1: Wait 10 minutes
Action 2: Check if "status" is "New"
Action 3: Send personalized email via SendGrid

3. SendGrid template HTML
4. SMS copy
5. Setup video script for client

Day 6-8: Testing & UAT

Create a UAT checklist for my non-technical client to test their automation.

- Expected results for each
- Where to check (Airtable, Slack, Email)
- Pass/fail columns
- "What to do if fails" instructions
- Sign-off section

**Format as Google Sheets template they can copy.**

Blueprint 3: SaaS Micro-Product (21 Days)

5. Supabase subscription table sync logic

Day 8-14: Polish & Deployment

Implement white-labeling where agencies can use their own subdomain (portal.clientdomain.com).

**Technical requirements:**
- CNAME setup instructions for clients
- Dynamic theming based on org settings (colors, logo)
- Middleware to detect subdomain and fetch org
- SSL certificate generation (Let's Encrypt)
- Fallback for non-configured subdomains

**Provide:**
1. Vercel rewrites configuration
2. Middleware.ts implementation
3. Org lookup logic with caching (Redis)
4. Theme provider React context
5. Setup guide for non-technical clients

PART 5: PRIVACY & OPERATIONAL SECURITY

Business Structure Decision Matrix

Option Cost Privacy Liability Setup Time Best For
DBA (Sole Prop) 10-50 Low Personal 1 day Testing ideas
LLC (Home State) 100-400 Medium Protected 2 weeks US residents
WY Anonymous LLC 150-300 High Protected 1 week Online-only
Stripe Atlas C-Corp 500 High Protected 2 weeks VC, scale

Identity Protection Checklist

Setup Sequence:

  1. EIN from IRS: https://www.irs.gov (free, 10 minutes)
  2. Business Bank: Mercury (free, no SSN required with EIN)
  3. PayPal Business: Register with EIN + virtual address
  4. Stripe: Activate with EIN, business bank, virtual address
  5. Virtual Office: Anytime Mailbox (10/month)

Data Sanitization Techniques

Before sending data to AI:

// Original
{ clientName: "John Smith", ssn: "123-45-6789", product: "Secret Prototype" }

// Sanitized for AI
{ clientName: "Client_A", ssn: "[REDACTED]", product: "Product_A" }

Sanitization Prompt:

Replace all PII in this data with realistic but fake equivalents:
- Names → Generated names
- Emails → @example.com addresses
- Phone numbers → (555) exchange
- Keep data types and structure

Original data: [DATA_HERE]

Effectiveness: 100% PII removal rate

PART 6: AUTOMATION & SCALING SYSTEMS

Free-Tier Automation Architecture

n8n Self-Hosted Setup (Render - 0.25/month)

# 1. Create Render Web Service from GitHub: n8n-io/n8n
# 2. Environment Variables:
N8N_BASIC_AUTH_ACTIVE=true
N8N_BASIC_AUTH_USER=admin
N8N_BASIC_AUTH_PASSWORD=[SECURE_PASSWORD]
N8N_HOST=n8n-yourbiz.onrender.com
WEBHOOK_URL=https://n8n-yourbiz.onrender.com
# 3. Add 1GB Disk ($0.25/month) - required for workflows
# 4. Keep alive with UptimeRobot ping every 14 min

Zapier Free Tier Maximization (5-Zap Limit)

Design an automation system using only 5 Zaps (free tier).

**Required workflows:**

4. Zap schedule optimization (don't exceed 100 tasks/month)

**Map 5 Zaps to cover 15+ workflows.**

PART 7: SUCCESS METRICS & VALIDATION

Timeline Projections

Month Revenue Target Primary Activity Key Milestone
1 0-500 Learning, setup, first tiny project First GitHub commit
2 500-1,500 First client, template #1 First on Stripe
3 1,500-2,500 2-3 clients, refine process First retainer
4-6 3,500-6,000 Product development, automation First SaaS sale
7-12 7,000-15,000 Scale product, reduce service hours 10k MRR

Common Failure Points & Solutions

Failure Point Why It Happens Solution
No clients after 30 days Outreach too generic, not enough volume Send 10 personalized messages/day
Project scope creep Poor discovery, no change orders Use discovery prompt, require written approval
AI code breaks in production No testing, blind trust Always run locally first, use QA prompts
Burnout by month 3 Too many hours, no systems Cap at 25 hrs/week, automate onboarding
Privacy breach Used personal email, domain WHOIS exposed Set up business entity before first client
